Better Aquastats?

BillW@honeywell

Part number is 107408, comes in a 4 ounce can. As far as protecting your kids from scalding, most new shower valves have automatic anti scald built in, but you also can get whole house 3-way mixing valves that won't allow the water temp above 145. There are undersink versions as well, if you only want one fixture protected. Our Whole-House models are the AM series, NPT, union & sweat models available sizes from 1/2 to 1". Teflon coated moving parts minimize mineral buildup. When you pipe them, run a seperate line of hot water for the dish washer and/or laundry, making sure that the sink isn't on the same line. That way, the dish washer and clothes washer gets the highest temp water, cleaning & sanitizing the dishes better, and saving electricity by not needing auxiliary temperature boost.

New To Me

Just saw my first electronic aquastat (Honeywell L 7224) by accident; never even knew they existed! I'd like to graduate up to a very accurate aquastat and a very accurate boiler tridicator for all of my jobs. Any opinions?

Beware...

if its used as a final safety device (high limit) it MUST be guaranteed to fail in a safe condition...

Hey work great as controllers and aquastats, but watch out when using them as high limits in critical situmacations...

I understand that some of the 7224 models have an adjustable Hi Limit Differential. Does anybody know the maximum differential that can be set? The manual doesn't specify it.

Thanks,

I have a 60 gal stainless steel, Stor-Ex, hot water storage tank . i changed the aquastat one in 4 yrs. it seems to , at times, go on and off about 5-6 times. I thought that there was a diff?. someone else suggest heat transfer grease which i cant find anywhere. any thoughts?

Heat Transfer paste

Aquastats

more details: i have the aquastat set at 125, dont want the kids getting scalded. Would setting it to 140 stop it from cycling on and off within seconds? secondly, heat trasfer grease: ridgewood plumbing supply doesnt have it.

Aquastats

oh yes and I would put a mixing valve on to temper it back to 125

Limit

usually any MH control that starts with a L is a limit. If it is just a operating control it will start with a T for thermostat. bob

Yikes

4 ounces of MH heat transfer paste in one location is a scary thought. Be REAL careful when you open that sucker cause the whole world is gona turn silver:)
